I will care for your fish, bird, cat, or dog in your own home, as if they were my own. I always spend play and cuddle time with the pets that I sit, in addition to the time I spend feeding and watering, light grooming, and managing their waste. I'm comfortable with administering medicines, even with finicky cats.
